    Gonna be heading down to AC to kill off some post-Super Bowl blues, anyone else gonna be around? Lmk if you wanna grab drinks or point and laugh at me for rooting for a loser team or w/e.

    Also, this is my first-ever trip to AC, so if anyone who's not going knows of things that I should definitely do, lmk that too. I'm probably just gonna be playing poker most of the time (and I'm under the impression that AC is pretty much a shithole that I wouldn't want to do much more than pp in?) but yeah, I know 0.0 about the place so tell me things.

    AC is a shithole for the most part. if you or your gf want to go shopping there are some outlets around the city that have decent stores. if it were spring/summer id say at least go for a walk on the boardwalk but considering itl be in the 30s i say stay inside at the borgata as much as possible. it has one of the nicest poker rooms in the country, great restaurants, and a good vibe overall.

    the one reason you really should leave the hotel is to go to the white house sub shop on mississippi and arctic, its one of the most famous food joints in NJ and is fucking fantastic.

    I believe Borgata has a $350+50, $100k guaranteed this weekend, so ya, I'll be there. Agree w/ above poster, AC is a shithole. I thought Whitehouse was good, but certainly overhyped, idk, I might just be trying t be too cool tho.

    Edit: where are you staying?? There are a couple decent (albeit overpriced) restaurants in the casinos. The Pool on Saturday night is prob the most "poppin" spot, but it's gonna be a 21-25 binge drinking crowd--idk if that's your thing. There will be a rack of bad bitches in there tho, most likely.

    Whitehouse is great but Dino's in Margate (10 mins from AC) is better

    Staying at the Taj on Friday and looking for somewhere for Saturday (Taj is entirely sold out apparently), looks like either ACH or Caesar's (anyone have thoughts on which would be a better idea?)

    edit: add Resorts as someplace I might stay Saturday

    edit: and Showboat?

    there's a WH in the Taj too if you're playing there at all. best damn sub roll anywhere. Shatters like glass on the outside, soft and light on the inside, damn maybe I'll go down just to get one.

    I stay at harrahs waterfront, but I get heavily doscounted rooms through Total rewards. If I had to pick between ACH and Cesears, i'd pick the later tho. . I'll be @ FW for the mega stack or else I'd swing by.

    Go to Tony Boloneys on Oriental and S. Vermont. (Dont waste your money on the over rated Sbarros. That shits weak.)

    Its some of the best pizza ive ever had. Their buffalo chicken pizza is the tits and their cheeseteak pizza won some shit on the food network. Its basically next to the new casino they are building (north of taj and showboat).

    Other then that, hit White house like others have said. There is also shopping that can be done at the Peir. Its connected to the back of Caesars.
